New fault detection filter design approach for continues-time switched systems

This paper investigates the problem of fault detection filter design for continuous-time switched systems. The designed fault detection filter is assumed to be asynchronous with the original systems. Attention is focused on designing a fault detection filter such that the estimation error between the residual and the fault is minimized in the sense of H1 norm. By employing piecewise Lyapunov function and average dwell time techniques, a sufficient condition for the existence of such a filter is exploited in terms of certain linear matrix inequalities. Finally, an example is provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.Dongsheng Du, Bin Jiang, Peng Shi, and Hamid Reza Karimihttp://a2c2.org/conferences/acc2012/author_info.ph
